Step-by-step explanation:

Packaging Of Dna Double Helix:

Prokaryotes

↬ No well defined nucleus.

↬ DNA is held with some proteins in nucleoid region.

Eukaryotes

Histones:

  • ↬ Positively charged proteins.
  • ↬ Rich in arginine and lysine.
  • ↬ 5 types:- H₁ H₂A, H₂B, H₃ H₄.

Histone octamer:

  • ↬ A pair of 4 histones.

Nucleosome:

  • ↬ DNA (-ve charge) makes two complete turns around the histone octamer (+ve charge) to form a nucleosome.
